Cambridge Regional College has been crowned STEM further education college of the year in a national awards ceremony at the House of Commons.

CRC received the title in the finals of the national ENTHUSE Celebration Awards, which celebrates the UK's inspirational science, technology, engineering and maths teachers.

The further education college in north Cambridge was recognised for its work promoting STEM subjects to young people.

CRC is no stranger to award-winning STEM work, with engineering student Leigh Sessions holding a BTEC Student of the Year award, chemistry lecturer Ursula Lowe winning last year’s national Further Education STEM Teacher of the Year title, and computer games lecturer Michael Warburton the Bafta Young Games Designers' Mentor of the Year award.

He said: "We are absolutely delighted that our excellent STEM provision and innovative staff have been recognised at such a prestigious awards event.

"To win the national STEM FE College of the Year title is a huge honour and great recognition of our engagement with schools, employers and STEM partners, as well as the dedicated staff who ensure the success of our students."
